My grandfather ran his own construction company decades ago. I have the stamp he would use to mark concrete foundations with his name. http://flic.kr/p/dVBGSN

Just ordered a hard drive toaster and a bare drive. My safety deposit box will be my new offsite cloud backup.

By my calculations, it will take Backblaze 176 days to finish this initial backup on my home internet.

Giving backblaze a try. Also considering getting a hard drive toaster and keeping offsite backups in a safety deposit box. Might be best since I have less than 1Mbps up.

@zacharyaklein Kudos on getting the contract. Reminds me of this quote: “Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell ’em, ‘Certainly I can!’ Then get busy and find out how to do it.” -Theodore Roosevelt

So this morning I poured boiling hot water on my hand, dropped the French press, and cut my hand on the broken glass. My kid just says, “Papa, whatcha doing?”

@manton that looks pretty cool!
